It doesn't sound like a herpes infection of your eye but eye discomfort which persists more than a day or two is a very good reason to visit an eye doctor.

Herpes eye infections are generally not sexually transmitted but more like fever blisters in their occurrence and recurrence. The specific herpes virus which causes most eye infections is not the same one which causes genital venereal infections.
